Definitions

  • the present invention relates to apparatus for making self-piercing nuts.
  • a self-piercing nut can be designed to pierce a metal plate to punch an opening therethrough so that a peripheral edge portion thereof is deformed to fit in a groove of the nut which is thus secured to the metal plate.
  • a variety of the self-piercing nuts, to replace weldable nuts or clinch nuts, are widely used for example in the manufacture of automobile vehicles which have many parts screwed with bolts to metal plates. Any self-piercing nut must withstand a torque not to rotate along with the bolt engaged therein, and must clinch strongly to resist removal from the metal plate. Recently, self-piercing nuts of novel and high stress types have been demanded to meet a requirement for a higher fastening force.
  • each self-piercing nut has a cylindrical pilot portion having a female thread as well as an end surface serving as a punch.
  • the pilot portion formed centrally of a nut body is surrounded by a rim extending along a periphery of the nut body and protruding therefrom in the same direction as the pilot portion. Therefore, an annular groove is provided between the pilot portion and the rim.
  • the nut body is of a tetragonal or hexagonal shape so that the annular groove has a non-circular configuration to improve the torque resistance.
  • At least one of the rim and the peripheral wall of the pilot portion facing the rim is slanted relative to the axis of the nut body.
  • the annular groove defined by such a slanted member or between the slanted members has a width which increases from its opening towards its bottom, thus dovetailed in cross section to improve its clinching property.
  • FIG. 5 of the accompanying drawings illustrates a self-piercing nut 1 of a high stress type secured to a metal plate 10.
  • This self-piercing nut 1 comprises a pilot portion 3 which has a threaded bore 2 formed centrally of a nut body.
  • a rim 4 extending along a periphery of the nut body and protruding therefrom surrounds the pilot portion, and an annular groove 5 is provided between the rim 4 and the pilot portion 3.
  • Both of side surfaces 6 and 7 of the pilot portion 3 and the rim 4 respectively are slanted relative to the axis of the nut body, so that the annular groove 5 is dovetailed in cross section.
  • a caulking die 8 cooperates with an end surface of the pilot portion 3 to punch an opening through the metal plate 10.
  • a peripheral edge portion 10a of the punched opening will be deformed and forced to fit in the annular groove 5 of the nut 1 to secure the nut 1 to the metal plate 10.
  • an outer circular edge 3a of the pilot portion 3 which is an upper circular edge of the peripheral wall 6 which faces the peripheral wall 7 to define the annular groove 5 serves as a cutting blade which cooperates with the caulking die 8 to punch the opening through the metal plate 10.
  • the diameter D 1 of the outer circular edge 3a that is an inner diameter of the annular groove 5, must be highly accurate in dimension.
  • the other peripheral wall 7 defining the annular groove has a circular edge 7a which is an inner circular edge of the rim 4. This edge 7a exerts a clinching force to the peripheral edge portion 10a of the opening formed through the metal plate 10, after said edge portion 10a is deformed and forced by the caulking die 8 into the annular groove 5.
  • the diameter D 2 of said inner circular edge 7a that is an outer diameter of the annular groove 5, also must be highly precise in dimension for invariable and reliable clinching force.
  • apparatus comprising a punching die for making self-piercing nuts from blanks therefor which each have a cylindrical pilot portion having blind bores coaxial with and separated by a blind bottom from each other and having an end surface serving as a punch, with the pilot portion as one of peripheral walls formed centrally of a nut body being thereby surrounded by a rim as another peripheral wall extending along a periphery of the nut body and protruding therefrom in the same direction as the pilot portion so as to provide an annular groove between the pilot portion and the rim; characterised in that the punching die comprises a first stationary die which has a boring punch and a first cylindrical insert fitted thereon; the first stationary die serving to retain the blank laterally and the boring punch serving to remove the bottom so as to cause the blind bores to communicate with each other; a pressing punch to provide an axial counterforce to the boring punch, the boring punch further having at a basal portion thereof a first tapered annular wall; an annular lug of the first cylindrical insert disposed
  • the apparatus may comprise a further punching die which has a second die having a cavity for receiving a blank for the self-piercing nut, and further has a second cylindrical insert disposed in a bottom region of the cavity.
  • the second die has in its inner region a second tapered annular wall so that the rim is forcibly slanted centripetally.
  • a second annular lug is formed at an end surface of the second cylindrical insert so that an inner circular edge of said rim is stopped by an outer periphery of the second annular lug when the annular groove is caused to become dovetailed in cross section.
  • Such an apparatus designed to mass-produce high quality self-piercing nuts, can form each self-piercing nut to have protruding peripheral walls facing one another to define an annular groove of a dovetailed cross section.
  • the apparatus causes one or both the peripheral walls to be slanted at an accurate angle relative to the nut's axis.
  • the pilot portion which the apparatus forms as one of the peripheral walls of each nut has to be shaped such that an opening can smoothly be punched through a metal plate. An invariable and sufficient clinching force can be ensured for the punched opening.
  • the tapered annular wall of the boring punch will radially expand the pilot portion's end of the blank for nut.
  • the peripheral wall of said pilot portion will thus be forced into a slanted position relative to the axis of the self-piercing nut until the outer circular edge of said peripheral wall bears against the inner periphery of the first cylindrical insert's annular lug.
  • the apparatus comprises the second cylindrical insert having the second annular lug, its outer periphery will bear against the inner circular edge of the rim, when the second tapered annular wall in the second die's cavity causes the rim to be slanted towards the axis.
  • the pilot portion and the rim are finished to be of an accurate dimension.
  • Figure 1 shows the preliminary step of forming a blank 11 for a self-piercing nut which will be finished using apparatus of the present invention.
  • a raw piece which is not shown but which has undergone some forming steps will be placed in a cavity 22 of a preliminary die 21.
  • a preliminary punch 23 and a knock-out pin 24 will be driven towards each other to press opposite sides of the raw piece so that blink bores 12a and 12b are produced.
  • the blind bores 12a, 12b which will be threaded later are still separated by a bottom at this stage.
  • a sleeve punch 25 fitted on the knock-out pin 24 will be pressed to one end surface of the blank 11.
  • An annular lug 26 protruding from the pressing end of the sleeve punch 25 will thus produce a cylindrical pilot portion 13 centrally of a nut body.
  • This pilot portion 13 surrounding the blind bore 12a has an end surface, which later in use will function as a punch capable of piercing a metal plate.
  • a rim 14 is formed at the same time as the pilot portion 13.
  • This rim 14 protrudes from and coaxially with the nut body's periphery so as to surround the pilot portion 13, whereby the blank 11 has an annular groove 15 defined between the pilot portion 13 and the rim 14.
  • An annular end surface of the rim 14 is retracted a distance from that of the pilot portion.
  • Figure 2 shows apparatus embodying the present invention comprising a punching die used to expand an end of the pilot portion 13 radially and outwardly.
  • a peripheral wall 16 defining the annular groove 15 will thus be slanted relative to the nut's axis so that the annular groove 15 becomes dovetailed.
  • a first stationary die 31 has a cavity 32 to allow a boring punch 33 to advance centrally of this cavity.
  • the boring punch 33 has at its basal region a tapered annular wall 34.
  • a first cylindrical insert 35 fitted on the boring punch 33 has an end surface from which an annular lug 36 protrudes to surround the tapered annular wall 34.
  • the first cylindrical insert 35 is held stationary in place in a holder 37.
  • a pressing punch 38 will be driven to press the blank 11 placed in the cavity 32 of the first stationary die 31.
  • the boring punch 33 will thus remove the bottom partitioning the blind bores 12a and 12b from each other, so as to open through the blank a penetrating but unthreaded rough bore 12, with the annular lug 36 remaining in the annular groove 15.
  • the tapered annular wall 34 will radially expand the end of the pilot portion 13, so that an outer peripheral wall 16 thereof is slanted with respect to the axis, thereby rendering the annular groove 15 dovetailed in cross section.
  • An outer circular edge 13a of the pilot portion 13 (viz.
  • FIG 3 shows the second die stage of an apparatus provided by the present invention, in another mode thereof.
  • This apparatus comprises in this mode a further punching die operable to slant the rim 14 towards the axis of the expanded pilot portion 13.
  • the annular groove 15 will thus be rendered fully dovetailed to have a width increasing towards its bottom.
  • the further punching die comprises a second stationary die 41 having in its inner region of a cavity 42 a second tapered annular wall 43 which forces the rim 14 towards the axis.
  • a second cylindrical insert 45 fitted on a knock-out pin 44 and placed in a bottom region of the cavity 42 has a second annular lug 46.
  • the annular lug 46 facing the second tapered wall 43 is separated therefrom a distance, and the cylindrical insert 45 stands still in the second stationary die 41.
  • a second pressing punch 47 is operative to press towards the insert 45 the blank 11 for the self-piercing nut held in the cavity 42.
  • the tapered annular wall 43 will force the rim 14 toward the axis, so that an inner peripheral wall 17 of the rim 14 is slanted with respect to the axis, thereby rendering the annular groove 15 fully dovetailed in cross section.
  • An inner circular edge 17a of the peripheral wall 17 will be stopped by an outer periphery of the annular lug 46, when the rim 14 is deformed. Therefore, the rim 14 is protected from an excessive deformation so as to ensure an accurate outer diameter of annular groove 15.
  • a female thread will finally be tapped in the raw bore 12 of each blank 11 so that the self-piercing nut 1 is finished as shown in Figure 4.
  • both of the peripheral walls 16 and 17 are slanted to provide a fully dovetailed annular groove 15 in the described embodiment. However, if desired, only one of them 16 or 17 may be slanted to produce a semi-dovetailed annular groove 15 also having its width increasing towards its bottom.
  • the apparatus comprises at least one annular lug to stop the pilot portion's outer circular edge and/or the rim's inner circular edge when the pilot portion surrounded by the rim to define the annular groove and/or the rim are deformed to become slanted with respect to the nut's axis.
  • the pilot portion and the annular groove which are thus finished precisely are effective to permit the self-piercing nut to smoothly punch an opening through a metal plate, and an invariable an sufficient clinching force to be ensured for the self-piercing nut.
